Possible Causes

Open motor winding, Faulty motor capacitor (top-load), Loose motor harness, Failed motor driver on PCB

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the washer before accessing the motor or control board.

  • Visual inspection: Remove the rear or bottom panel to access the motor. Check for burnt smell, discoloration, or melted insulation.
  • Check harness: Ensure the motor connector is fully seated and wires are intact.
  • Test windings: Use a multimeter to measure resistance of motor windings according to Comfee specs. Replace the motor if windings are open or shorted.
  • Capacitor (if equipped): On some Comfee top-load models, test the motor start capacitor. Replace if it is bulged or tests out of spec.
  • PCB diagnosis: If motor and capacitor are good, the motor driver circuit on the main PCB may be faulty and require replacement.
